•FOB (Freight on Board) -  Enter the name of the shipping company or select from the auto-complete drop down list.

 

What you will see in Create / Change Purchase Order

When creating or changing a P.O. if you click the Miscellaneous button it will open the Edit P.O. Miscellaneous dialog. As you can see in the example below the Ship Via and FOB have been populated with the default values entered in the Vendor tab from Vendor File Maintenance.
